Complex Adaptive Systems andComplexity Theory: Inter -relatedKnowledge Domains byRebecca Dodder and Robert : Research Seminar in Engineering SystemsMassachusetts Institute of TechnologyOctober 31, 2000 IntroductionThis paper provides a description of two highly interrelated knowledge domains: Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS) and Complexity Theory. The initial sections providean overview, descriptive characteristics, background and social/institutional outlines forthe Complex Adaptive Systems knowledge domain. The next four sections providedescriptive material on applications of CAS thinking in the disciplines of physics,biology, economics and political science. While CAS has implications for many otherdisciplines, these sections illustrate how CAS thinking has found its way into ongoingtheory development in a representative set of fields. The next sections of this paperdescribe the highly related knowledge domain of Complexity Theory, providing materialon identifying and measuring Complexity , and the relationship of Complexity toengineering Systems .
describe the highly related knowledge domain of Complexity Theory, providing material on identifying and measuring complexity, and the relationship of complexity to engineering systems. The last section provides some closing thoughts on the outlook for these two closely related knowledge domains. Overview of Approach to Complex Adaptive Systems
